As news spread today of Paramore’s amazing 2013 self-titled LP being certified Gold by the RIAA, it got us thinking about just how far the band have come over the past decade. Take this collection of videos shot during the 2005 Warped Tour, when a very, very young Paramore—at the time comprised of vocalist Hayley Williams, guitarists Josh Farro and Jason Bynum, bassist John Hembree and drummer Zac Farro—play “Here We Go Again” and “My Heart” off their debut LP All We Know Is Falling, which came out that summer on Fueled By Ramen. While the band were only on the tiny Shiragirl stage that summer, you can see the crowds already beginning to grow and connect with the band, especially with Williams as a frontwoman. What’s truly crazy is she was only 16 at the time of this filming. Sixteen! Check out the clips below, and tweet your congratulations to Williams, Jeremy Davis and Taylor York for Paramore going Gold.
